HELLO BEAUTIFUL HOOPERS
Summer officially begins this month, temperatures are rising, and celebs and fitness fanatics are taking to the hoop to look hot this summer. Nicole Kidman and Jennifer Aniston were spotted having a hoop-off in Hawaii, Oprah.com wrote about Hoopnotica as a fun outdoor fitness activity, Good.is interviewed HealthCorps students about Hoopnotica’s fitness curriculum, and InStyle Magazine recommends Hoopnotica as one of the best ways to look great in a Bikini this summer.
The Hoopnotica office is buzzing with new developments. We are proud to announce that we’re opening the first ever Hoopnotica Studio in Los Angeles, CA. Having our very own studio space means that we can host Hoopnotica classes 7 days a week! If you’re interested in attending, or if you are a Hoopnotica certified instructor who wants to host your class at our studio, visit our “classes” page for more info.
Our partnership with HealthCorps is still going strong. Hoopnotica has participated in several “Highway to Health” festivals over the past few weeks. We love bringing the joy and fitness benefits of Hoopnotica to teens and families across the country. Please continue to support this partnership through the purchase of a branded HealthCorps Hoop. Look hot in the hoop this summer, AND support a great cause!
Keep Hooping!

Favorite Song to Hoop to: I work in a high school, so we've all got Beiber Fever
“I first got started hooping when Hoopnotica came to my health fair that I put on as part of my job as a HealthCorps Coordinator at Canoga Park High School. It's a great workout and the perfect alternative to the mundane P.E. class exercises that all my students hate. I purchased a bunch of hoops for my students and implemented "Hooping Wednesdays", where we take the hoops outside during lunch on Wednesday and hoop with a DJ spinning jams for us. The kids LOVE it, and they'll follow me around campus asking to go grab the hoops out of my office. They're definitely a hit at my high school. I'm all for anything that gets my students moving!”
I'm so honored to be hooper of the month! Hooping is such a great way to connect with my students, which is definitely my favorite part of it. Also, my mom once won a hooping contest at summer camp and my little dachshund Stewart's favorite trick is to jump through a hoop for treats, so hooping clearly runs in the family!
